Lavin

This needs to happen asap. So many openings, trickle down might hurt the situation

Early bird gets the worm.

It's called The Miracle of St. Anthony. It's been out for a long time now. I got it for my Dad about 6-7 years ago. Great read.

Hurley Sr. will never send another St. Ant's player here after Roshown McLeod and Ingram. Talk about burning a bridge. The most famous HS hoops coach in America and the Johnnies are on his shit list when it comes to recruiting his players. Never gonna change. The Johnnies sure could've used a Markus McDuffie in this recruiting cycle. Because they surely don't have enough 6'4 guards and wings. Sad.

But we shouldn't feel bad. Hurley Sr. has yet to send a player to his own son Danny.

I love how all these local media guys have the Lavin haters thinking Steve is on his way out.  Only discussion is 5 year or 3 year extension

@SRod021 My guess is the same. Zagaorias source sounds like it's the disgruntled brown noser, Sam Albano.

@_redmen That Albano clown had a run-in with Lavin where he was told to go scratch his ass so now he has become a pain in the ass

Sergio was the guy that said the Greek kid was going to commit in a couple days a few months ago

  and Jay_On1 said that Briscoe was coming.....  Everyone is full of shit until their not.

Going to end up being Mas and Hurley v. Mullin

Repole is also huge fan of Richard Pitino

Normally I'd be hesitant about a candidate who has no prior head coaching experience, but Sacaramento was so impressed with Mullin they wanted him to coach BEFORE they went out and got George Karl.  Mullin would be the exception.  I assume Terrence would be an assistant?

I kind of hope it's not a SJU only staff

He would need an X/O guy
He would need a recruiter like Chiles, Kimani Young, Slice, or Rasheen Davis
Third assistant would be OK to go to a Terrance Mullin or Steve Shurina type

DOBO I would want a local SJU guy like Hamilton or Ty Grant

His name has been out there, it would be very risky IMHO

That is who I was told last week is #1 target

At the time he was. He pulled a complete 180 last second.

I think Richard is a better coach than people realize. I trust his ability to recruit too. I wouldn't be mad at it but not sold he can do better than Lavin.

So you guys are fine with once a 4 year Ncaa appearance?

You're going to need a bigger hook with all the bait you've been putting out lately.

What if St. John's made tournament last year? If they made 3 in 5 would we even be talking about this at all?

IF Lavin goes.......I would be surprised to see us hire Masiello.  Image is still tarnished from last year.  There needs to be more distance.  Bobby Hurley (should be easy to get), Archie Miller (tough get but great choice), Mark Jackson (unlikely due to estranged relationship w sju).  Do NOT want Richard Pittino.

Crazy long shot - Is Billy Donovan ready to come home after tough year = highly unlikely.

Just some thoughts.

Add Bob Mckillop to the list. What he did at Davidson this year was almost miraculous. He's a really really good coach and would not turn us down. Not saying he's my first choice or even top 3, but I'd take him over Lavin or Pitino in a heartbeat
